The Atlas of Luzerne County Pennsylvania.
From actual Surveys
by and under the direction of D. G. Beers & Co., 1873

These maps were produced before Lackawanna
County was formed
from parts of Luzerne County in 1878. They show both the geographic
features
of an area, as well as the locations and names/owners of many of the
homes
and stores. As a result, they are invaluable as a genealogy tool. This
is the full set.

NOTE: All maps
are scanned in overlapping sections
in a width that can be printed on 8 1/2" wide paper, but may be longer
than 11". For best results, save the images and print from an imaging
program,
rather than your browser.

The scans are numbered beginning
at the top left corner
and moving across to the right. The next row begins again at the left.
In order to make the maps legible most have been scanned at 150% of
full
size with a minimal amount of compression. As a result, they will take
time to download. Each map has it's own milage scale noted.

Maps are listed by page
number with the alphabetical
links in the tables
